About

I am an instructor based in Springfield, Ohio, with a degree in secondary education from Wright State University. I have instructed and tutored K-12 and at the college level. I have a special talent for communication and thoroughly love the process of teaching and learning. I have had much success with reading comprehension and writing skills and have been trained for ACT and SAT test preparation.

I tutor all levels in French. I can get someone to function or become bilingual quickly, for business purposes or relocation. I also tutor failing HS students or brand new students, in order for them to pass their classes.
I also tutor very young children, so they stay or become bilingual growing up. French conversation and literary discussions are okay. My background covers quite a bit, and I am well-traveled in addition to my BA and teaching experience.

We are successful because we match tutors based on the individual who needs tutoring. This ensures that personality, communication styles, and tutor expertise are in-line with your needs. Additionally, we believe that academic success isn't just about understanding the subject but having the right studying and learning skills to succeed long-term. We pride ourselves in being academic coaches.
There is nothing better than meeting with a student and learning their individual story to understand how tutoring can benefit them. We work with students of all ages and abilities and there is always a moment when it all clicks together. That is the most satisfying part.

College is expensive. Repeating college courses is even more expensive! Nothing satisfies me more than knowing I have helped to save someone from failure. And I find even greater joy when I know I have helped someone achieve above-average performance.
How it began?
In the beginning of my college days, I took notice of a fellow student who was failing in her grades in Trigonometry. Our professor recommended that she should study with me, since I had a much greater handle on the subject. I did not need studying for my self, but I committed the remaining days we had in the semester to helping her overcome the challenge. I knew the time I had invested had certainly paid off, when I heard the report that her exam grades went from about 30% to about 80%. In the next semester, I helped her to succeed in an engineering math course considered to be the "filter course" to separate the "worthy" from the "unworthy". Today, she repeatedly tells me, "I would not have made it without your help", and "you should become a tutor."
I enjoy helping students overcome academic challenges in math, trigonometry, calculus, physics, chemistry, computer programming (C and Mat-Lab), and essentially anything dealing with physical science and math.
I have worked with a wide range of different personalities (at least 50 different personalities in the classrooms); and I'm fairly comfortable working with any.
I am particularly known by students and by my peers to be well determined; and I'm also very patient when working with slow learners. I am also known by students for breaking down complicated concepts into simple analogies.
However, I am also detail oriented; I teach and expect students to include proper syntax and format of steps and final answers, and why they are important. Mathematics is a language; and like any written language, it needs to be "spelled" correctly.
I have classroom experience as a Calculus 1 lab assistant at Wright State University. There are two types of calculus lab environments which I have worked with:
1) Pencil-and-paper assignments (my favorite)
2) Computer lab assignments using Mathematica
While Mathematica is a powerful tool that professors have used to aid them in teaching math courses, I sincerely believe that students learn best when their assignments are done on paper.

I am experienced in tutoring general mathematics, arithmetic, pre-algebra, algebra, and geometry. I have tutored and taught mathematics for the past six years to middle-school-aged students. If you need a refresher for college entrance exams, I'd be able to teach you what you need to know!

A civil engineering background helps me view Maths in different perspectives as GMAT textbooks. I think I can change how students view GMAT quantitative questions.
I want to help students with poor Maths background and change their thoughts about Maths.

Q & A

Math home tutors are available for any age student, from elementary school to postgraduate studies. Rates will vary based on the tutor’s background, education and experience. To find a good math tutor, first determine your learning goals. Do you need help understanding and completing homework assignments? Are you preparing for the math portion of a standardized test? Next, read reviews from current and former students. Find someone with proven success helping students achieve their goals. If you want help on an ongoing basis, decide what your budget is and identify the tutors who fall within your range. Ask if there are additional fees for travel, as some home math tutors include travel costs in their rates and others charge extra. Ask about session length and the tutor’s teaching style, and whether they also offer online sessions or group sessions. Finally, schedule a single session with each of the math tutors you think are best to see who is the best fit.

Math is a subject that’s challenging for many students. Fortunately, home math tutors can help students excel in math by working with them in focused one-on-one tutoring sessions. The cost for math tutors varies based on the type of math, the expertise and experience of the tutor, and geographic location. Pricing may range between $40 and $100 per hour, depending on the math subject. As a rule, the more complex the subject matter, the more the math tutor will charge for the lessons. The cost reflects the math tutor’s advanced studies and the work required for them to be able to teach on the subject. Frequency can also affect costs. Students can buy packages of lessons for a lower cost per session than buying individually. Nationally, the average hourly rate for a geometry home tutor is $50-$60. The national average rate for an algebra home tutor is $40-$50 per hour. For generalized math tutors, the national average ranges between $40 and $50 per hour. More intensive standardized test prep studies and math tutoring average $70-$100 per hour.

Investing in home tutoring is an investment in your child’s future. Home tutors work one on one with your child to address their challenge areas and provide room for intellectual growth that may not happen in a busy classroom. The cost of home tutors depends on multiple factors including where you live, the tutor’s background and education, the subject matter, and how often the tutor comes. Test prep home tutoring is typically more expensive than single-subject tutoring. Here are some examples of average tutoring costs:
